The upper shaft seat is a Gateron low-profile shaft seat.

The lower shaft seat is an MX shaft seat.

These two types of shaft seats are not compatible with each other. Please avoid using force or engaging in violent operations.

## 2.Installation process

**First, install the switches onto the positioning plate, and then install the entire positioning plate onto the PCB.**&#x20;

\*The positioning plate and the PCB are fixed only through the switches, without screws or studs. (This keyboard is mainly designed for low-profile shafts, and the height from the low-profile shaft positioning plate to the PCB is too small to use screws.)&#x20;

\*Small tip for installing low-profile shafts: Pay attention to the latch of the switch, which is located on both sides. When installing, first insert the side with the latch into the positioning plate, and then use your fingernail to push the latch on the other side, and it will easily slide in.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://home.ifkb.tech/products/if-ergolite/installation-manual.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
